MISCELLANY.
HAIL COLUMBIA.
A writer in the Pemi8 Ivania Inquirer, sign
ing 1 ims. If "A Veteran." says that the. mar
"lial air, H til Columbhl. was originally known
m . r. - , . t I. 1 .... I ... . ,
as " 1 ne frestueiu s .viarcn. auu w is u n
posed in honor of Washington, tit the l ine
Tie was President nl Ihe (Jailed Sta'.es.
When." he udds. ; his successor the elder
Adams became President, there was soon
exrited an enthusiast ic feeling against. France
ia consequence, not only of her violation ol
our neul at rights, hut on acc.oui.t of her in
sulting conduct towards our Ministers sent
there, and requiring from ihetn t lie humilia
tion ol a bribe. The country ivas immedia
fy oj in arms and during this fervor, the
Lite Judge Hopkiuson composed "Hail Co
limhi.i." which was sung in t lie thetilres trnd
other public places, and before very long,
the words improperly gave a name to the
tune instead of being called as il ouirhl 10
have been. "Washington's March." I fivver
hettr that tune, without naturally associal'tig
it. with the august and dignified presence ol
that inn quailed man. the iilustrious chief,
the Father ol his Country, in honor of who.-n
i' was composed, and protest against it being
called alter word, which under the circum
stances of the case, may be called a misap
plication." THE SCRIPTURAL DUTV OF ADVERTISING.
We have often herd it saiil that aim .i
everything can be proved by scrii-lure. We
begin to believe il since it has been poll ted
out to ui that Solomon in his Proverbs."
furnishes so comprehensive and sa"li-lactory
an exp "sition ol the philosophy ol adverlis
inff. "There U. saj's he. "thai scailereth
and yet increaeih nnd there, is that ivith
ihotdeib more than is meet, but it tendeth to

ihe Co inthians thus expressed a coincident
Mlra : -He u ho oweili sparingly hall reap

'shall reap -boun tfully."
So yii fs if you read your bibles diligent

herein for advertising.

"Hoofland's Gsbmass Bitters. We have seen
many d itluring notices of this medicine, md the
source from which they came inditc.-d us to make
inquiry respecting its merits. From inquiry we
were persuaded ;o use it, and m .st say we found it
specific in its action upon diseases of the liver and
digestive organ, and the powerful influence it exerts
upon nervous prostration, is really sjrprising It
calms nnd s' rcngthens tne nerves, bringine them in
to a state of repose, making sleep refreshin-.
If this medicine was more generally used, wc are
satisfied there would beless sickness, as from the
stomach, liver and nervous system, the great major

Established in order lo affjrd the Afflicted

and for the suppression of
Quackery.
DR. 1. B. Smith has for inuny years devoted his
wholea.teu.ion toihe treatment ot Pnvate. om
piuims, in' all 1 heir varied and compticateu forms.
His great success in those long Branding nnd diffi
cult cases, such -is were irmerly considered incur
able, is sufficient to commend hi 1 11 to the punllc as
worthy of the extensive patronage he has received.
Within the last eight years, Dr. . has treated more
than 29,5UU cases of Private Complaints, in their
rtifierct.t forms and stages; a practice which no
doubt exceeds that of ail other physicians now ad
vertising ia Baltimore, and not a single case is
known where his directions were strictlj followed,
and medicines taken at reasonable time, without
effecting a radical and perm 1 nent care ; therefore,
persons ifflicted with diseases of ihe above nature,
'no ut uter now difficult or long standing the eae
may be," would do well to call on Dr. Smith ,at his
ofliee.No, 16, South Frederick St. .and ifnoietiec
lually relieved no remuneration will be required lor
his services. His medicines are tree from Alt icury
and all mineral poisons ; put up in a neat and com
pact torui, and may be taken in a public or piivate
house, or while travelling, without exposure or hin
drance from business, and except incases f vio
ent inflammation, no change of diet is necessary.
STitIC I'U RES. - Dr. Smith has ms.uvcitd a
new method by which he can cure the worst form of
stricture and that without pain or inconvenience 10
the patient. Irritation of the urcllia, or prostrate
glands, or nerkof the bladder, is sometimes mistaken
lcrstrictures by L'eneral practitioners or charlatans.
YOUNG MEN

Known to the engraver; yet he showed him
his birds, blocks, and drawings, as he did

cheerfulness; but, on discovering the high
rank of his visiter, exclaimed, "1 beg par

and was unaware 1 had the honor of talk

Duke good-humored ly replied, -You are a
much greater man than I am, Mr. Bewick."
To this Bewick, with his ready wit, that
never failed or offended, returned, "No, my
lord; but were 1 Duke of Northumberland,
perhaps I could be."
